| 2 | HBP | Tightness in chest, indigestion, burning in stomach. | I take Bystolic with this drug so its kind of hard to distinguish which is causing what. I do know I didn't have have these symptoms while just on Bystolic. I think both of the drugs are bad, which is worse...who knows? I do know my energy level is subzero. I just wish I was normal again. Some days I feel like a zombie. 🙁 | F | 43 | 8 months 10 mg | 1/15/2016 | 1 | Bp | Violent coughs | This is a killer | F | 44 | 6 months 20 mg | 1/8/2016 | 1 | HBP | The uncontrollable coughing sent me to a Pulmonologist. Coughing continued with several meds and inhalers. Then sent to Cardiologist. Given more meds. Nothing helped!! There was a constant tickle on the left side and sometimes on the right. I started throwing up on myself and urinating on myself from coughing so hard and constantly. My left jaw started swelling and became extremely painful and sent me to the ER. Doctor asked if I ground my teeth at night and I responded with I don't have time to grind my teeth I'm too busy coughing and hacking all night long. The doc asked if I took BP meds, of course I said yes Lisinolpril and she said "matter of fact" that the coughing was a result of the BP Meds. I just took a deep breath and asked had I broke my jaw from coughing, she said my jaw wasn't broken but now I have TMJ. A very painful condition where the cartridge between you skull and jaw wears away or wrinkles...and no one will ever convince me this coughing over the last 7months didn't have something to do with. I trusted the doctors which looks like I will be paying for with my health. I was started on the BP and that has lead to 8other scrips trying to breath. Well over 150$ a month in meds and constant grasping for breath, was a high price to pay. I will eventually forgive the doctors, that's their job it seems. To keep us sick so we will take more meds to fight off the side affects of everything else. Vicious cycle! I just have to now begin forgiving myself fo | Do your homework, before taking this!!

Then resumed it again, and symptoms returned Told my primary doctor, and she said I might have a stroke of I don't take the medicine. She then prescribed Am lodi pine (5mg). Same symptoms. Anyone know of a medicine that is not an ACE inhibitor that works without side effects? | F | 74 | 1 years | 11/29/2015 | 1 | Mild Hypertension | Chills and shivering within an hour of taking 1st dose. Called the pharmacist and she was unaware of this side effect. Joints in right hand stiffened. Heart pain, BP went up and down constantly, to the point of suffering Irregular heartbeat many times. By the 11th hour, my abdomen, chest and back swelled and out of curiosity, I jumped on the scale. 3 lbs of water weight in 12 hours! This is the only med I'm taking and I drink only water. This drug is poison! | It should be removed from the market. | F | 49 | 1 days 10MG 1X day | 11/20/2015 | 1 | High Blood Pressure | The first 5 days of taking Lisinopril (with combination of Hctz) for High Blood Pressure I felt great and it was keeping blood pressure down. After that everytime I took it I ached all over, could hardly walk, had chest pain, sore throat, left ear congestion and my blood pressure went up. | There are so many other medications they can give you for High Blood Pressure. I would recommend talking to your Dr and having them start you on something else. | F | 47 | 2 weeks 10 | 11/19/2015 | 1 | High blood pressure | Abdominal pain (severe).

I thought I was having an anxiety disorder because it came from nowhere. This also made my tongue a little swollen. Doc told me to stop taking it. My BP is normal since stopping it. Not even going to take amlodipine as a replacement cause there's side effects to that one too. These drugs are evil! | F | 45 | 2 weeks 2.5 mg | 11/7/2015 | 1 | Hypertension | Sore Throat--I have a hard time swallowing any kind of food. Dry Cough that won't go away--I have flu-like symptoms like fatigue, body aches, headaches Tongue feels thick--I cannot taste food, nothing tastes good Nasal passage is extremely dry, difficulty breathing | F | 45 | 14 days 10 1X day | 11/5/2015 | 1 | Hypertension | Shortness of breath, severe dry cough and throat dryness! Today is the very last day that I take this poison!!! | F | 47 | 1 weeks | 11/3/2015 | 1 | High Blood Pressure | Full body muscle spasms and cramps.

Within 10 days I felt like a new person. Much more energy and my appetite greatly improved. I'll never take it again. | M | 66 | 1 years 20 | 10/23/2015 | 1 | Hypertension | Chest discomfort, throat irritation, bowel problems, depression, sleep disturbance. | With most blood pressure medications you have to weigh the side effects against the benefits. This medication, while relatively effective in controlling my BP, had so many disturbing side effects I had to discontinue using it. Left side chest pain was so significant and bothersome I had to have a CT scan to ensure there were no serious issues. My throat always felt irritated on one specific area on the left. My bowels were in a constant state of irregularity and I really had to watch what I ate as the med caused IBS-type reactions. My mood was down often (perhaps in reaction to the overwhelming side-effects). I couldn't take the med before going to bed as it would either create bad dreams or keep me from going into a deep sleep. After discontinuing the med it took about 2 weeks for the side effects to subside, but they did, and I feel tons better. My med of choice with the fewest side effects for now is 25mg of Atenolol. A little fatigue is a walk in the park compared to Lisinopril. | M | 55 | 5 months 10MG 1X day | 10/19/2015 | 1 | blood pressure | headache, ED, depression, anxiety, tremors, lack of interest, low libido, lack of energy, mood swings, confusion, low self esteem, paranoia. | OMG. Thank you all, until i came across this website i thought i was all alone going thru this. I honestly thought there was something seriously wrong with me and couldn't figure out what was happening to me. constantly breaking down in tears..now i know it wasn't me but this poison of a medication..How can one med fix one thing and cause all these multiple side effects. I've stopped taking lisinopril in hopes that the damage that it has caused will be irreversible. SHAME to the FDA and DOCTORS for prescribing this poison to patients. | M | 56 | 7 months 10mg 1X day | 10/17/2015 |
